Grand River Raceway Race 5 - Race 5

CODE CRACKER (3) is in good form at present. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Mohawk Park, beaten 4 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Has the class to take care of this field. SMILES FOR MILES (4) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 0.8 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Won't find this any harder and he can grab that well-deserved win. THUMANN (10) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.3 metres at Georgian Downs over 1609m. DAY DELIGHT (1) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a head at this track over 1609m. Something for the Multiples: MAKEMEALEGEND (6)
